Mango Muffins

Hi, this is Kristin from Dizzy Busy and Hungry! I am so excited to be writing my first post as a regular contributor for Anyonita Nibbles. Thanks so much to Anyonita for having me!

Today I am sharing my recipe for Mango Muffins. I just love fruity muffins, don't you? The fruit adds so much flavor and moisture to the muffins, and I think muffins with fruit make a really satisfying breakfast.


These muffins use whole wheat flour to pump up the fiber content which will keep you going all morning long. And they also have almonds on top for a little extra kick of protein. Make them ahead of time and then just grab one and go on your busiest mornings. They also freeze well, so you can make a double batch and have a supply readily available for a couple of weeks! (That is, unless you eat them all within a few days like my family did, haha!)
